A perennial herb with pleasingly pointed green leaves, peppermint is grown throughout many regions of the globe, particularly Europe and Northern Africa. Its strong minty aroma is very evident, even upon gently brushing the plant, and its fragrance has a sweet note, along with a hint of pepper, as its name implies. Peppermint is widely used in candy, food and drinks, and it is regarded as one of the most important essential oils in aromatherapy!

My brother says that the pantry cupboard smells like Christmas now
I got this to use as a pest repellent. My brother says that the pantry cupboard smells like Christmas now. (I put some oil-soaked cotton balls in the pantry cupboard to hopefully get rid of the moth problem they've had in the past.) Anyway, I'm happy with this particular purchase. It was a good price and the container is fine. Now hopefully it will work to deter pests...

And smells nice as well.
As always, Great product. Use it to discourage critters, wasps from nesting, in sachets to deodorize shoes, discourage inside bugs from being .. well .. inside, minor aches and pains (external application only), added (few drops) to shampoo and dish soap, and a whole lot of other things that needed either a lovely scent, disinfecting, or in the case of critters .. discouraging. Love the smell of pepperment!

Great size for the price
Great size for the price. After opening the product the cap didn't seem to fit tight so we transfered the product to another bottle.

I love this product I do wish they had better Packaging ...
I love this product I do wish they had better Packaging because it was leaking then. When I took lid off the teeth stick out and caused a nice size cut in my finger. Oil and cut don't mix! But the smell is amazing. Idk if it's because it was leaking but did not seem like 16oz of oil.

Perfect but for the packaging
The oil itself is very nice, great fragrance and works well. We strongly disliked the packaging. When pouring the oil from these bottles, oil spills around the opening making a mess. We tried using a funnel and it made no difference. We have not had this problem with other brands.

Does not smell genuine
This seems to have been diluted with some thing or another. I have to soak an entire sheet of paper towel before the smell becomes strong enough to affect the entire room. Speaking of the smell, if you've used actual peppermint oil in the past, you will be able to smell the difference right away. It has a distinct chemical aroma that I have never experienced with others. Forget the mice, I couldn't stand the smell myself after a few days!

Large Quantity
Keep in mind this is a HUGE bottle. I thought it would be a relatively normal size which is my own fault for not paying more attention. Haven't opened it yet but have bought peppermint and other essential oils from piping rock before and the quality seems good.

Okay, But Not as Expected
I bought this less expensive oil to use in my diffuser but it doesn't quite smell like fresh peppermint. It starts off smelling strong with almost an undertone of pine scent. The scent fades quickly in the diffuser and you are left with simply the water and no scent. It may be okay for soap but I most likely won't rebuy it to use in a diffuser.
